# Feb 20th 2020, 22:58 tomrwaller Guess I need to append [] to name={{name}} in my template but not sure where to do this.
# Feb 20th 2020, 22:57 ricksaccous oh nice
# Feb 20th 2020, 22:57 slackebot - `'selectMultiple' => '<select class="form-control" multiple="multiple" {{attrs}} name={{name}}>{{content}}</select>'`
# Feb 20th 2020, 22:57 tomrwaller Anyone got any idea why when I use a form template the HTML name attribute for a select is different? I've narrowed down my issue and it is because I'm missing a set of braces... This code fails - `<select name="associated_technologies[_ids]" multiple="multiple" id="associated-technologies-ids">` This code works - `<select name="associated_technologies[_ids]*[]*" multiple="multiple" id="associated-technologies-ids">` This is the template
# Feb 20th 2020, 22:57 ricksaccous oh mannnn

# Feb 20th 2020, 22:55 ricksaccous oh funkadelic what's up with ur forms, i'm sure you are about to tell us more
# Feb 20th 2020, 22:49 ricksaccous ahahahhaa
# Feb 20th 2020, 22:49 challgren @ricksaccous you sound like me! :P
# Feb 20th 2020, 22:49 ricksaccous Croogo can have anything you want ;) if you program it to ;)
# Feb 20th 2020, 22:48 jan-willem Doesn't Croogo have any import?
# Feb 20th 2020, 22:48 dereuromark sounds like this https://github.com/FriendsOfCake/awesome-cakephp#cms-and-applications-built-on-cakephp Croogo a bit. Which basically can do that.
# Feb 20th 2020, 22:47 dereuromark or the blogging part, with some role management :)
# Feb 20th 2020, 22:46 ricksaccous i have no idea though
# Feb 20th 2020, 22:46 ricksaccous it sounds like he might just want to transfer the membership portion over to the new CakePHP portal
# Feb 20th 2020, 22:45 challgren There wouldnt really be a way to convert wordpress to cakephp, you’d have to redesign/code everything from anew
# Feb 20th 2020, 22:45 challgren @info519 wordpress and cakephp are 2 different beasts
# Feb 20th 2020, 22:31 info519 Has anyone ever managed to convert a Wordpress/Buddypress membership based site to CakePHP ? if any experience, please share your ideas
# Feb 20th 2020, 22:01 tomrwaller Flipping heck - been staring at this for hours and wondered why it worked fine in a clean test project - was my form template all along, screwing up the HTML. Now to unpick that hot mess...
# Feb 20th 2020, 21:51 tomrwaller Hi all - any idea why this line would be generating a count of items selected instead of an array of ID's in my add.php? `echo $this->Form->control('associated_technologies._ids', ['options' => $associatedTechnologies]);`
# Feb 20th 2020, 21:45 jan-willem Thank you!
# Feb 20th 2020, 21:43 jan-willem Just noticed. Working. Perfect!
# Feb 20th 2020, 21:40 dereuromark Locally I cannot reproduce for some reason...
# Feb 20th 2020, 21:39 dereuromark Also exists there ;)
# Feb 20th 2020, 21:35 jan-willem But will look to it. thnx
# Feb 20th 2020, 21:35 jan-willem I suppose this one was for me? :P I'm already on CakePHP 4
# Feb 20th 2020, 21:28 wizardfix Reading now @challgren thanks :)
# Feb 20th 2020, 21:27 challgren @wizardfix see https://www.dereuromark.de/2020/02/06/virtual-query-fields-in-cakephp/
# Feb 20th 2020, 21:27 dereuromark @hawk dot syntax is not supported by has afaik. I use here normally https://github.com/dereuromark/cakephp-shim/blob/master/src/Model/Entity/ReadTrait.php - which then supports paths.
# Feb 20th 2020, 21:26 wizardfix From the book (3.8): > Control which Fields Used for Ordering¶ > By default sorting can be done on any non-virtual column a table has. Does this mean the Paginator can no way sort on virtual fields? :thinking_face:
# Feb 20th 2020, 21:18 jan-willem can I use the has() function as well for nested associations? I know I can use it to check if `games->events` exists. But can I use it as well to check if `games->events->competitions` exists?
# Feb 20th 2020, 18:37 phantomwatson Ha! Yeah, that's my experience too. Sometimes just by analyzing your problem enough to write a well-formed question or bug report, the cause reveals itself.
# Feb 20th 2020, 18:34 jh the next attempt works
# Feb 20th 2020, 18:34 jh always when u ask after tinkering for a few hours
# Feb 20th 2020, 18:34 jh i just tinkered around it it works
# Feb 20th 2020, 18:22 phantomwatson I'd like to help, but I'm having a hard time understanding your question.
# Feb 20th 2020, 18:11 jh damn i hate this guessing/magic :E
# Feb 20th 2020, 18:02 jh in patchEntity i use 'TariffsDocuments' => ['onlyIds' => true],
# Feb 20th 2020, 18:01 jh tariffs_documents._ids.0 tariffs_documents._ids.1 etc contents each is just the foreign key to the tariff document
# Feb 20th 2020, 18:01 jh What could probably stop _ids BTM to save the association?
